Sector-lord

In the Furse Empire, Sector-lords are the most powerful lord to serve under the High King and High Council.
Sector-lords rule over a small number of systems with several System-lords sworn to them. Sector-lords are selected from within the Sector to serve on behalf of the Empire. Oaths are sworn on the rise of a new lord.
A Sector-lord is expected to serve the people he rules, and is granted the right to build fleets to defend their sector from attacks with their own Home Guard units. They often rise up as kings in their own right during the dark times of the Empire.
